shodo

Location:

This is the space to introduce the Project section. Take this opportunity to give visitors a brief overview of the types of projects they'll find featured in the showcase below. Consider adding an image or video to spark their interest. 

Shodo Canada will be exhibiting and explaining hanging scrolls with Zen phrases traditionally used in the tea room. In addition, they will set up a table where visitors can pick up a brush and write their favourite words themselves. Shodo Canada will provide several sample words such as 楽Raku (ease/joy), 和敬Wakei (harmony and respect), and 一期一会Ichigo Ichie (treasuring each unique encounter). Participants will be able to write their chosen word by hand on a small bookmark and take it home as a keepsake. We hope that participants will take their time, enjoy the process of choosing a word while having conversations, and experience the pleasure of writing with a brush.
